[openlp-dev] [Easy Task] Testing Indic Text in OpenLP

Hi,

I have a quick investigation that I'd like someone to do for checking 
Indic text in OpenLP. Currently (2.4.6) the song editor doesn't display 
Indic (or other non-latin) text correctly[0]. One of our users has 
posted some helpful information on the forums[1], and has a database of 
Indic songs available to download[2].

Can someone test this out with a recent version of OpenLP on Windows, 
using the webengine-migrate[3] branch (it doesn't depend on WebKit), and 
see if you can reproduce the problem please?

This should be a quick and easy task for someone who is wanting to get 
involved in OpenLP and doesn't know where to start.
